Yup, I bought the czrr Avon's from Krause racing, they are waiting for my roller at a secret location in Texas. (It's secret so none of "use-guys" try to steal my tyres!)

Good call! I've got a set on my car and love them.

I don't think you will be disappointed.

I remember you from the SCOF days, and your unorthodox deer hunting methods. It will be good to have you back. There's been additions to SCOF that you will find interesting and entertaining, if you can stand it. Some people have been violently repulsed, in which they have never been seen or heard from again. Only to find out later that they cowered in fear in a fetal position under some bridge overpass.

Good luck on your new car.

Default More stuff

Poly motor mounts purchased and shipped to KCR Plano, purchased from Motorcity Customs http://home.comcast.net/~mcwebs/parts/mount.htm



Side pipes finished and shipped to KCR, purchased from Firefly Performance http://www.fireflyperformance.com/





They look fantastic!!!

BTW, please do not post stuff negitive about side pipes. If you have questions about side pipes just PM me and I will try to answer. My selection of side pipes is in no way a dig on anyone else's side pipes or any other manufacturer of side pipes.

I should have more motor pics soon!

Default I am wondering about the rear end.....

I use the poly mounts and changed out the stock side pipes too.
In our quest for more performance and as we improve traction.

My question is how much H.P. can you put thur the 8.8 and before the shafts go away?

The SPF's all come with the BTR dana rear now, so I can not answer your question. The gearing selection is small for the BTR, I think the only other ratio available is a 3:91. I am questioning the .82 5th because I will be turing 2800 rpms at 70 mph (the nomial Missouri hwy speed limit). That seems high to me.
